QOTSA & Nick Oliveri perform together for first time in decade

The newly-reformed friendship between Queens of the Stone Age and former bassist Nick Oliveri is apparently still going strong.

Oliveri took the stage with the band Tuesday night in Portland, Oregon to sing lead on one of their encore tracks, "You Think I Ain't Worth a Dollar, But I Feel Like a Millionaire."

The performance marked their first live show together in more than a decade. Oliveri was fired from Queens of the Stone Age in 2004. But in 2012, he invited frontman Josh Homme to guest on a track with his band Mondo Generator. Homme then invited Oliveri to contribute to a song on Queens of the Stone Age's last album, ...Like Clockwork.
